Hi, My Name is Ed

My name is Ed.  In actuality, my nickname is Ed.  My name is Erin, but please call me Ed.

I'm going to be a senior next year at DePauw University in Greencastle, IN.  This is my first time going to GHC.  I can't lie to you, I'm so excited!! I've been lucky enough to attend regional conferences here in Indiana and I'm always filled with enthusiasm and energy!  I know GHC is going to be just as exciting and energetic.

I've looked through the schedule and highlighted everything that I want to go to.  Looking back at my highlighting, there are a lot of events that overlap, so I'm going to have to decide which ones I really really want to go to.  Those will be difficult decisions!  Here are some, but not all, of the sessions I'm hoping to go to:

• Networking Workshop with Jo Miller-This is something I know I can improve on.  Plus, I'm going to be a senior!  Soon I'll be going out into the real world and looking for a job.  I think this workshop will be extremely beneficial.
• Resume Clinic-Once again, I'm going to be a senior looking for a job.  Resume tips are always welcome!
• How to Manage Your Career When "Life Gets in the Way"-I've always looking for information about how to keep my life balanced so I'm not overlooking some important aspect of my life be it friends, academics, or family.
• Any Session about Recruiting Girls into CS or Outreach Programs-I'm the chair of Women in Computer Science (we use the same acronym as Kate, WiCS), so I'm tirelessly on the lookout for how to improve our organization.
